Full-Figured Fashion Weekend Friday and Saturday: The international runways may be flirting with plus-sized models, but at Full-Figured Fashion Weekend, curvy chicks rule. The two-day agenda includes panel discussions on plus-size apparel, models and "the state of the curvy community." A semi-formal runway show of plus-size looks will cap off the weekend at 7 p.m. Saturday.

Hyatt Regency Century Plaza, 2025 Avenue of the Stars, Los Angeles. See website for event times and prices.
